    Very fine bike mechanics! They tuned my Guerciotti to perfection, it looks brand new!

    This guy ROCKS!

    The guys at Bicycle discovery are knowledgeable and nice. Some bike shops want to tell you everything you don't know or what you should buy (with a whole lot of upwelling), not this neighborhood shop. They sell a wide range of bikes, do repairs from simple to complete re-builds and give advice when requested. Their prices are in line with the current market (agreed, it's up there right now post-pandemic) but they will take care of you after your purchase and want you to be happy. Got a bike? Need a bike? Want a new toy? These guys are worthy of your business!

    I went shopping with my girlfriend for new bikes. We were assisted by Chris. He was a great help. He patiently answered all of our questions and lended great insight into our purchase. He made the buying process easy and we had a great experience. The store itself has all the bikes and accessories you could ask for. We've been going to this shop for years and will continue to do so.

    Bought my bike, Electra beach cruiser 10 gears and basket here. I also came back for a bell and side mirror. The guys are really friendly and will put your accessories on your bike too. I would defiantly buy another bike here and refer anyone in need of a bike to this place. Their prices are lower than a lot of bike shops. Large selection. Lots of colors.

    Chris IS THE BEST!!!! I have rented here ever since I was a little kid and I just purchased a bike for the first time. This was my first place to stop to grab a bike lock and other accessories. Chris was so helpful and knew exactly what I needed and went above and beyond to make my bike look awesome!

    "Beard" and service dog in training "Frannie" helped pick out the perfect bike.

    "Beard" helped me cut through all the online research I'd done to try to decide what kind of bike I'd really use. He had such thoughtful questions AND answers. What a pleasure to work with him and the rest of the very friendly and knowledgeable staff. And I love my new bike!

    Katri was very helpful and patient. I was able to test ride 3 bikes before picking this one. She explained all the differences in the different bikes. A bike technician also put on all the accessories I picked and made sure everything is just right. Also comes with 2 tune ups. Great service. It was a great experience. I'm so happy with my purchase!

    Came with optional fenders and rack.

    Hey thanks for making a total impulse purchase awesome and quick! I unloaded my bike from my truck across the street and looked at it in dismay, then looked up and saw this bike shop and decided to Cruz over there real quick. I rode my old crappy bike right in the store and everyone greeted me nicely! Looked at a townie 9d and asked if they had a kid carrier for my 2 year old daughter and the guy showed me a few and my daughter said she likes the blue one so on it went! They popped that sucker on in MINUTES, did a precheck and had me out of there like so fast it was awesome! They even stored my crappy old bike so we could take our ride for the day and not worry about it! AWESOME! Thanks for all the help guys you were rad and made my day with a new bike!

    Took my new beach cruiser for a ride!

    See all

    I'm not young anymore. Well, age has nothing to do w/ it. Perhaps I was tired and feel like I'm…read moretired all the time now but we arrived to San Diego before 9AM and was fortunate to check in early with 2 upgrades. I was envisioning myself in bed to read, nap, and scroll on my phone but Gavin had other ideas. He enjoyed the breaks in the room but wanted to do things. I don't blame him. He noticed this place as we were walking to get lunch earlier. We ended renting a surrey. It's meant for 2, both would need to pedal but the left side had the real steering wheel. Even when it was Gavin's turn to "drive," I still spun the dummy wheel though I knew it served no purpose. It was instincts. The path we took was along the waterfront which is the only path allowed. It was difficult to maneuver because there were a lot of people and a lot of people that are inconsiderate, too. Like a family of 6 walking side by side? Who are your parents that never taught you basic manners?! Service was nice. They hold your ID until the rental is returned. Gavin had fun. A helmet is mandatory for kids under 18 (free). All you pay is the rental for the bike itself. I'm not sure when will be our next cruise but we will definitely try this again but early in the morning so we can bike freely w/o people.

    Scooters worked great. Excellent battery power. But I just wanted to mention also the excellent…read moreservice I received. I don't know the guys name but he was a young guy and he was working at 10 AM on a Wednesday. Highly recommend if you are getting off of a cruise and want to just hang out in San Diego for the day.
